A 2D array can be dynamically allocated in C using a single pointer. This means that a memory block of size row*column*dataTypeSize is allocated using malloc and pointer arithmetic can be used to access the matrix elements. A program that demonstrates this is given as follows. Example Live Demo #include #include int main() { int row = 2, col = 3; int *arr = (int *)malloc(row * col * sizeof(int)); int i, j; for (i = 0; i < row; i++) ... Read More

The details about a pointer and array that showcase their difference are given as follows.PointerA pointer is a variable that stores the address of another variable. When memory is allocated to a variable, pointer points to the memory address of the variable. Unary operator ( * ) is used to declare a pointer variable.The following is the syntax of pointer declaration.datatype *variable_name;Here, the datatype is the data type of the variable like int, char, float etc. and variable_name is the name of variable given by user.A program that demonstrates pointers is given as follows.Example Live Demo#include int main () { ...

Use of the new operator signifies a request for the memory allocation on the heap. If the sufficient memory is available, it initializes the memory and returns its address to the pointer variable.The new operator should only be used if the data object should remain in memory until delete is called. Otherwise if the new operator is not used, the object is automatically destroyed when it goes out of scope. In other words, the objects using new are cleaned up manually while other objects are automatically cleaned when they go out of scope.The following is the syntax of new operator.pointer_variable ...

Static variables can be defined using the static keyword. They are variables that remain in memory while the program is running i.e. their lifetime is the entire program run. This is different than automatic variables as they remain in memory only when their function is running and are destroyed when the function is over.Function-level static variables are created and initialized the first time that they are used although the memory for then is allocated at program load time.A program that demonstrates function-level static variables in C is given as follows −Example Live Demo#include int func() {    static int num = ...

Minkowski distance is a metric in a normed vector space that measures the distance between two or more vectors. This is typically used in machine learning to find distance similarity. The formula to calculate the Minkowski distance is - $$\mathrm{D= \big[\sum_{i=1}^{n}|r_i-s_i|^p\big]^{1/p}}$$ Where, xi and yi: Two points in n-dimensional space p: Parameter that determines the type of distance being calculated. For example, if p=1, it is the Manhattan distance, and if p=2, it represents Euclidean distance. For example, if we consider the following vector's as input - x = (0, ... Read More

Floating number is a number that has a decimal point and can represent both large and very small values. Binary number is a number expressed in the base-2 numeral system, using 0's and 1's. The conversion of floating-point number to binary representation in Python requires to represent the number in the IEEE 754 format(a set of representation of numerical values and symbols). For example, consider a floating number 9.87, its IEEE 754 32-bit binary representation (1 bit for the sign, 8 bits for exponent, and 23 bits for the significand) is "01000001000111011110101110000101".

In this article, we will discuss different methods used to right rotate a list from the given rotation number. A list has comma-separated values (items) of same type or different type between square brackets. To right rotate a list by n, Python offers many ways such as using slicing, rotate() method of the deque object and others. Let's discuss these ways in detail with examples - myList = [5, 20, 34, 67, 89, 94, 98, 110] The following is the output if we assign n as 4 − 89, 94, 98, 110, 5, 20, 34, 67 Right ... Read More

There will be times when we misspell some words when we write something. To overcome this problem, we use the PyEnchant module in Python. This module is used to check the spelling of words and suggest corrections that are misspelled words. It is also used in many popular tasks, including ispell, aspell, and MySpell. It is very flexible in handling multiple dictionaries and multiple languages. For example, if the input is 'prfomnc', then the output returned would be - 'prominence', 'performance', 'preform', 'provence', 'preferment', 'proforma'. PyEnchant Module For Windows users, install the pre-built binary packages using pip - pip ... Read More
